  1. Now, go into VS and add prices for each of the items in the list box. Select the list box and open the items property editor box as you did when you added the items.
  2. Put your cursor at the end of the first item and then USE THE SPACE BAR (not the TAB) and move over 20 spaces or so and add some prices. Do not try to line them up. Just make sure you move the prices over a ways. When the list box is on screen, I do not want customers to see the prices.
  3. We will start coding this beauty after you all finish with the design part.
